I've been having problems this last week or so too. SE15 here. It seems to have improved a lot since yesterday I got my 2>4mb speed increase but some sites are still very stubborn to load. Still not worried at mo. But it was awful for a few days.

Im in Beckenham (BR3) and my 1mb has been painfully slow loading some sites in the past 2 weeks or so. It is particularly bad in the evenings (peak times). The last 2 days it has improved, but some sites are still really slow.

Yep switched Proxy myself and its better but not perfect.

Bear in mind that if everyone switches to the same proxy, suddenly, it won't be so fast anymore.
